Abstract

A continuum model of perfect or dislocated crystals is considered, and it is shown how one can view such a crystalline medium as an oriented medium, and as a material manifold with an irrotational law of distant parallelism. In dislocated crystals with twist, the Burgers vectors of homologous cycles are not independent of the cycles unless the amount of twist is restricted.
